Chapter 1454
"Of course, I dare!" Anthea was not afraid of Leonardo at all.
Through the line, she acted as if she was scolding her son. "What nonsense! If she didn't have a secret crush on you, would she be willing to give birth to your daughter after an unexpected One Night Stand (ONS)? When you suggested that you would shoulder the responsibilities, she would rather sacrifice herself than use the marriage to prison you!"
Mila couldn't hide her love for a person.
There were three things in the world that couldn't be hidden: Coughing; poverty; and love.
As the saying went, "Involvers always get confused while outsiders can be more clear." Anthea had noticed that Mila secretly fell in love with her good friend Leonardo, and that's why she repeatedly emphasized to him that he was not allowed to flirt with Mila.
However, sometimes a man and a woman would be tied together by destiny.
Leonardo was speechless."..."
He could tell from Anthea's tone that she was not surprised at all. She must have known it for a long time.
He was probably the only one who didn't know that his wife had a secret crush on him a long time ago.
Leonardo then became silent.
Hanging up the phone, he frowned and deeply reflected upon what had happened before.
He thought about how Mila and his cousin talked about the former's secret love towards a man in the Schain family that day. At that time, Mila's face was slightly drooped, while the focuses on her eyes were somewhat blurred. Her voice was void as if it came from a distant place.
Mila said that the secret love tasted bitter.
For so many years, she had hidden this feeling deep in her heart. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Leonardo withdrew the mobile phone in his hand and pursed his thin lips.
In the private hospital...
Although it was the first day for Mila to come back to work, she had worked together with Anthea before. They had a good understanding of each other. Now, Mila's medical skills were good enough and could cooperate with other doctors very well.
Anthea was very happy for the return of Mila.
Because it was Monday, the schedule of the operations was relatively full. From the early meeting to the end of work, Anthea and Mila almost didn't leave the operating room for a whole day. In the evening, their high-intensity work finally came to an end.
Anthea and Mila came out of the ward together, laughing and talking.
At this moment, the afterglow of the setting sun shone into the corridor through the windows. It was very warm and magnificent scene.
Anthea smiled and said, "Mila, I think your medical skills have improved greatly!"
Mila chuckled. "Director Lee, thank you for your compliment!"
For Mila, Anthea was not only her superior, but also a bossom friend. When she first worked for the hospital as a medical intern, Anthea had already become a medical director because of her comprehensive abilities. Mila had always worshiped Anthea and regarded her as an idol.
Now that she heard Anthea's praise, Mila was very happy. She cherished Anthea's good comments more than anyone else.
Anthea said seriously from the bottom of her heart, "I didn't say polite words. Your medical skills are truly very good. I think you could independently do operations for the patients now, except for some serious or difficult
operations. You don't need to be my assistant!"
Mila laughed happily.
Not only did she get the praise from Anthea, but also confirmation of her medical skills, which made her excited.
When she raised her head, she was surprised to see a man's figure. "Leonardo, why are you here?"
Leonardo was wearing a high-end handmade suit, which befitted his good figure. Perhaps it was because he had got married, he looked more prudent and reserved now, demonstrating the mature fascination of a married man.
One of Leonardo's hands was in his pocket, while the other hand was wearing a wedding ring, which was shining under the dim light.
Anthea hadn't expected that as soon as he finished the phone call in the morning, Leonardo would appear and meet her in the evening. She raised her eyebrows and asked knowingly, "Hi... Golden Leonardo? What are you doing up here?"
"Come and pick up my wife after work!" Leonardo said with confidence this time.
When Leonardo, Mila, and their daughter visited Anthea's home for the first time, Anthea deliberately joked with him, saying that his daughter was his daughter, but his wife was not his wife.
Now his daughter and wife were both his!
Leonardo's back was straight, because he was now very delighted and confident.
Anthea secretly rolled her eyes up at him: "Leonardo, does your confidence come only from the fact that your wife loves you?"
Leonardo totally forgot his good friend in the face of a beautiful wife. He came directly to Mila, put his long arm around her shoulder, and said, "This your first day of work. As your husband, I should come here to pick you up!"
"Thanks, Leonardo!" Mila's face turned red.
She took off her white gown and handed it to Anthea. She almost acted like a young girl who was shy. "Director Lee..."
Anthea took it with a smile. "Go ahead!"
Mila nodded and walked away together with Leonardo.
Their backs were very close to each other. Within two steps, Leonardo's arm was tightened, full of a sense of possessiveness. He almost circled her whole body in the arm with almost no gaps.
Although Anthea couldn't see Mila's face, she noticed that the latter's two ears were red out of shyness.
Anthea laughed.
She felt novel when she saw Golden Leonardo and his wife showing off their love!
She tidied up the white gown in her hand and was about to turn around at the intersection in the corridor when she met someone.
Anthea looked surprised.
Leonardo and Mila came out of the hospital and got into their Maybach.
As now was the peak hours of the day, the road was relatively congested. Their car drove on and halted intermittently. However, the atmosphere inside the car was romantic and intimate.
After Mila fastened her seat belt, Leonardo put his big hand over hers.
His fingers were long, and his palm was fleshy.
His hand pressed upon her small hand tightly, and their body temperature intertwined.
Mila looked out of the car window. Their car had moved only approximately a hundred meters after a long time. Her heart was as warm and sweet as the breeze at dusk.
"Leonardo, thank you so much!" She said, "My mom came over to my office at noon today! She didn't blame me anymore. She also said that she wanted to see Holly. She invited the three of us to have dinner
together with them at weekend!"
When Mila was pregnant, she was still unmarried at that time. Her parents got so angry with her.
When Mila's parents asked her who was the baby's father, she simply replied to them that it was because of One Night Stand. Then, her parents forced her to abort the baby. They thought that this
was good for her. After all, Mila had just graduated from college at that time. They believed that abortion was good for her future.
Mila was adamant that she wouldn't choose abortion. In order to protect her baby, she fled abroad, which completely broke her parents' hearts. For so many years, she had been in a tense relationship with them.
During the lunch break, Mila's mother visited her, brought her some food, and forgave her. The mother and daughter had not seen each other for many years, and both of them cried. They hugged each other and shed a lot of tears.
Mila knew that Leonardo must have tried to reconcile her relationship with her parents.
Leonardo held Mila's hand tightly. "It was my fault. You broke up with your family for such a long time. I hope I could do more things for you!" "It's not too late!" Mila shook her head.
As long as the feeling of happiness was real, it didn't matter if it came a little later.
After getting on the bridge, the road condition gradually became better.
When they almost arrived at the residential area of villas, the Maybach didn't turn into the private road. Mila asked in confusion, "Leonardo, aren't we going back home?"
"No!" Leonardo said, "Let's go to a place first!"
Mila asked, "Where?"
Leonardo kept her guessing. "You'll know it later!"
Mila felt a little excited and expectant.
Could it be a candlelight dinner of only the two of them?
This possibility made her feel shy. The sunset glow shed into her eyes, while her cheeks blushed a little.
However, Mila hadn't expected Leonardo would bring her to an unexpected place.
